Friday Snippets

Well, for those of us here in the US, it’s been a bit of a shorter week this week, what with the holiday on Monday. I’ve always preferred holidays on Mondays as opposed to Fridays, since then, after a long weekend, you’ve got a nice, shortened week before the weekend is back once again. And you know my thoughts on weekends. But before we get there, we need to stock up on some bite-sized gaming stories.

Wow, we’ve hit 100 backers! We couldn’t be happier! It puts us ever closer to our goal, and with 8 days left on the campaign we are going into the last week in a great position 😀 Getting the word out to more backers is always key, so lets keep it up folks!

Now, hitting 100 backers is a major milestone for any Kickstarter campaign, so it seems like we need to share something to celebrate the occasion…so we came up with an idea! Our stretch goal graphic is lacking a little bit in substance, so we decided to get creative with a few character silhouettes to give you guys a taste of what we’ve got in mind. Check it out!
